Whats the very first game you ever played? I remember watching my brother playing Asteroids and Missle Command on Atari 2600, but the first game I played was Duck Hunt for NES.

Can't remember at all. All I know is that it was definitely a big old arcade machine at the bowling alley.

My earliest memory was some game on the Atari 2600, it had something to do with frogs jumping on leafs.

I think it was either Donkey Kong or PacMan

I don't quite remember, but I'm pretty sure my first game was Super Mario Bros. 2. I was about 3 years old and I played it over at someone's house.

Pac-Man! the mini home arcade version. *waka-waka-waka*

Man... so hard to remember what I played first....

I remember my mom and dad playing Pong, I was about 2 years old, and I did play Pong myself, but I don't know if that was the first game I played. Soon after my dad got the Pong machine, he got an Atari 2600 when it first came out. I remember playing Space Invaders and Missile Command for hours on end.

So I guess first game was either Pong, Space Invaders, or Missile Command.

Probably Chase H.Q or Robocop in the arcade in the late 80's..

10-05-2006, 08:31 PM

Either Mario or one of the many Mega Man games for the NES

Tempest

I think it was the original prince of persia on the old DOS computer. I could never seem to beat the first guy with the sword :(

Man, I remember the first time I saw Prince of Persia for the PC. I was amazed at how fluid the guy moved. Most games before that had like 4 frames of animation for the run sequence.

I was stoked that it actually ran on my 8086, with 64k ram, and 4 color monitor! :D

good times.

Zoda's Revenge - NES. Yes, I played that even before the Mario Bros./Duck Hunt game that came with it.

Either Wolfenstein, Doom, Duke Nukem, or Heretic for comp. My dad had these when I was like 5 and I often played them with him:bigwink:

I also had a baseball game on Atari I think... It was just a bunch of little cube people basically. Can't remember which was first, but I think the comp games were.

That was one of my firsts. Pacman on the Atari 2600 was probably my first though.

Seeing as how my dad owned an arcade, I don't exactly remember what my first "game" was. My first console game however, was Resident Evil 3 for the ps1. God I remember when my dad showed me that game. He let me walk right into the police station and laughed when I yelled because Nemesis jumped out.

That dude still freaks me out too.

I used to play Duck Hunt/ Mario Bros. with my older brother all the time. He would kick my ass on a regular basis so my dad used to distract him while he was shooting. He still kicked my ass on a regular basis though...

Hehe, I think that was the first game my youngest nephew ever played when my sister used to bring him over to my place. He was totally obsessed with it. He wouldn't play anything else.

It's a tossup between Kaboom! or Pac-Man or Missle Command or Space Invaders

On PC, probably the original Civilization (civnet). Console, I think golden eye. At least those are the ones I remember.
